SUMMARY COMMENTARY

Chairman and Chief Executive Officer Jack M. Greenberg commented,
"McDonald's global food service business delivered good results in the
first six months of 2000 with Systemwide sales increasing seven percent,
revenues increasing 10 percent and diluted earnings per share increasing 12
percent in constant currencies.  Second quarter growth was affected by
challenging year-over-year sales comparisons, due to exceptional
performance in several key markets in 1999.  However, we remain confident
that we will regain stronger sales momentum in the second half of the year
and improve operating results.  This expectation is based on our solid
operating fundamentals, strong marketing and promotional calendars, and
less challenging comparisons in several key markets in the last half of the
year.
     "We continue to believe McDonald's stock is undervalued and therefore
have been an aggressive buyer, purchasing about $700 million, or 19.1
million shares, of our common stock in the second quarter.  This brought
year-to-date purchases to nearly $1.3 billion and the cumulative purchases
under our $4.5 billion, three-year share repurchase program to $2.5
billion, or 70 million shares."
     Jim Cantalupo, Vice Chairman and President McDonald's Corporation
said, "The fundamentals of our business remain very strong.  We opened 546
McDonald's restaurants year-to-date and remain on track to add about 1,800-
1,900 this year.
     "Europe and the U.S., which together comprise about 80 percent of
operating income, each faced difficult comparisons driven by exceptionally
strong non-food promotions last year.  The challenges in Europe were
compounded by unusually hot weather and high television viewership of the
Euro 2000 Soccer Championship, which reduced eating out activity.  With
these factors behind us, we expect significant improvement in Europe's
results in the second half of the year.
     "In Asia/Pacific, Japan's new value strategy is beginning to gain
momentum.  The segment also benefited from outstanding results in China and
South Korea, while Australia's challenging comparisons and a drop in retail
spending hurt results.  In Latin America, we have experienced some
improvement in Brazil, although we continue to be adversely affected by
difficult economic conditions in most markets.  We remain optimistic that
we will experience improvement as we progress throughout 2000."
     Alan Feldman, President McDonald's USA said, "This year's Teenie
Beanie Babies was a terrific Happy Meal promotion, ranking as the fourth
most successful ever in the United States.  However, it did not match last
year's exceptional sales level.  If it had, U.S. sales would have been up
about five percent for the quarter.
     "I'm excited about our second half marketing calendar featuring our
new advertising campaign, 'We Love to See You Smile.'  The campaign
highlights six customer service initiatives including: faster, more
accurate drive-thrus; everyday value offerings; tasty new products; a new
system that delivers food 'Hot. Fresh. Just For You!'; a 'Fresh Look' for
restaurants including new painting and landscaping; and better trained and
motivated people.  In addition, we have a great line up of promotions.  For
example, in August, McDonald's Summer Music Event will offer three new CDs
featuring Britney Spears and *NSYNC, as well as other popular artists.  And
later this year, we'll feature a promotion linked to Disney's live-action
movie, 102 Dalmatians.  With the improvements we've made in our restaurants
and our strong promotions, we look forward to exciting our customers and
bringing them back again and again."

OPERATING RESULTS
McDonald's operates primarily in the quick-service hamburger restaurant
business.  In addition, the Company operates other restaurant concepts:
Aroma Cafe, Chipotle Mexican Grill, Donatos Pizza and, effective May 26th,
Boston Market.  Collectively these four businesses are referred to as
"Other Brands."  Throughout this release, Other Brands financial
information is included in the Other segment, except where specifically
noted.

Impact of Foreign Currencies on Reported Results
     While changing foreign currencies affect reported results, McDonald's
lessens exposures, where practical, by financing in local currencies,
hedging certain foreign-denominated cash flows and by purchasing goods and
services in local currencies.
     The primary currencies negatively affecting reported results for the
quarter and six months were the Euro, which is the currency in 11 of our
European markets including France and Germany, the Australian Dollar and
the British Pound.  This negative effect was partly offset by the stronger
Japanese Yen in both periods.

Systemwide Sales and Revenues
     Systemwide sales represent sales by Company-operated, franchised and
affiliated restaurants.  Total revenues include sales by Company-operated
restaurants and fees from restaurants operated by franchisees and
affiliates.  These fees include rent, service fees and royalties that are
based on a percent of sales with specified minimum payments along with
initial fees.
     On a global basis, the increases in sales and revenues for both
periods were partly due to expansion, and for the six months, also due to
positive comparable sales.  Foreign currency translation had a negative
effect on the growth rates for both Systemwide sales and revenues for the
quarter and six months.  The stronger Japanese Yen had a greater positive
currency translation effect on sales compared to revenues.  This is due to
our affiliate structure in Japan.  Under this structure, we record a
royalty in revenues based on a percentage of Japan's sales, whereas all of
Japan's sales are included in Systemwide sales.  For this reason, sales
were less negatively affected by foreign currency translation than were
revenues.
     On a constant currency basis, revenues increased at a higher rate than
sales in both periods due to the higher unit growth rate of Company-
operated McDonald's restaurants relative to Systemwide restaurants, the
addition of Other Brands and the consolidation of Argentina and Indonesia,
for financial reporting purposes, in the first quarter 2000.

n/a  Not applicable

     U.S. sales were flat for the quarter as expansion was offset by
negative comparable sales.  If Teenie Beanie Babies sales had equaled last
year's level, U.S. sales would have increased about five percent for the
quarter.  For the six months, U.S. sales increased three percent, due to
restaurant expansion and positive comparable sales.
     In Europe, expansion, partly offset by negative comparable sales,
drove the constant currency sales increase for the quarter, while expansion
and positive comparable sales drove the increase for the six months.
Strong performances in Italy, the Netherlands and Spain drove the increases
in both periods.  France and the United Kingdom also contributed
significantly to the increases for both periods.  The segment's sales
growth rate was negatively impacted by difficult sales comparisons in
Germany as a result of successful non-food promotions in 1999, unusually
hot weather and high television viewership of the Euro 2000 Soccer
Championship, which reduced eating out activity.
     In Asia/Pacific, the constant currency sales increase for the quarter
was driven by expansion, partly offset by negative comparable sales, while
the sales growth for the six months was driven by expansion and positive
comparable sales.  Positive comparable sales in several markets, including
double-digit comparable sales growth in China, and expansion in Japan drove
the segment's sales increases in both periods.
     In Latin America, constant currency sales increases for the quarter
and six months were driven by expansion, partly offset by negative
comparable sales.  Contributing to the increases were expansion for both
periods and positive comparable sales in Brazil for the six months, and
double-digit comparable sales in Mexico for both periods.
     In the Other segment, positive comparable sales and expansion in
Canada and South Africa contributed to the increases for both periods.  The
sales increases for the quarter and six months included $106.1 million and
$149.3 million, respectively, related to the addition of Other Brands.

     Combined operating margin dollars decreased $29.7 million, or two
percent, for the quarter, and increased $45.0 million, or two percent, for
the six months.  In constant currencies, combined operating margin dollars
increased by $12.3 million, or one percent for the quarter and $120.7
million, or five percent for the six months.  The U.S. and Europe segments
accounted for over 80 percent of the combined margin dollars in both
periods.
     As a percent of sales, Company-operated margins decreased for both
periods.  Food & paper costs as a percent of sales decreased for the
quarter and increased for the six months, while payroll costs as a percent
of sales increased for the quarter and decreased for the six months.
Occupancy and other operating expenses increased as a percent of sales for
both periods.
     In the U.S. and Europe, Company-operated margins decreased as a
percent of sales for the quarter and six months.  As a percent of sales in
both segments, food & paper costs decreased, while payroll costs and
occupancy & other operating expenses increased for both periods.  In the
U.S., approximately one-half of the second quarter's margin percent decline
was due to the comparison to last year's Teenie Beanie Babies promotion.
Germany, which also faced challenging comparisons due to strong promotions
last year, accounted for half of Europe's margin percent decline for the
quarter.
     As a percent of sales, Asia/Pacific's Company-operated margins
decreased for the quarter and increased for the six months.  Latin
America's Company-operated margins decreased as a percent of sales for both
periods, primarily due to difficult economic conditions experienced by most
markets, partly offset by the consolidation of Argentina.
     Franchised margins as a percent of applicable revenues decreased for
the quarter and six months.  The decrease in the margin as a percent of
revenues was primarily due to higher occupancy costs as a result of our
strategy to lease more sites.  By leasing a higher proportion of new sites,
we have reduced initial capital requirements.  However, as anticipated,
this practice reduces franchised margins since the financing costs implicit
in the lease are included in occupancy expense, whereas for owned sites,
financing costs are reflected in interest expense.
     For all segments, excluding Other, franchised margins as a percent of
revenues declined for the quarter and the six months primarily due to
increased occupancy costs.  In addition, the consolidation of Argentina and
Indonesia contributed to the decline in margins as a percent of revenues in
Latin America and Asia/Pacific, respectively, for both periods.

Selling, General & Administrative Expenses
     Selling, general & administrative expenses increased eight percent for
the quarter and nine percent for the six months.  This increase was
primarily due to spending to support the development of Other Brands and the
consolidation of Argentina and Indonesia.  Selling, general & administrative
expenses included $14.3 million and $25.2 million related to Other Brands
for the quarter and six months, respectively.  Excluding Other Brands and
the consolidations, selling, general & administrative expenses increased two
percent for the quarter and four percent for the six months.

Other Operating Income and Expense
     Other operating income and expense consists of transactions related to
franchising and the food service business.  Equity in earnings of
unconsolidated affiliates decreased for the quarter primarily as a result
of a gain reported in 1999 on the sale of real estate in a U.S.
partnership.  The decrease in other expense was primarily related to lower
provisions for property dispositions in 2000 and costs in 1999 related to
the write-off of software and the implementation of our Made For You food
preparation system.

Operating Income
     Consolidated operating income decreased $7.2 million, or one percent,
for the quarter, while increasing two percent in constant currencies.  For
the six months, consolidated operating income increased $49.8 million, or
three percent; six percent in constant currencies.  The increases, in
constant currencies, were due to higher combined operating margin dollars
and higher other operating income, partly offset by higher selling, general
& administrative expenses.  Operating income by segment includes the
allocation of corporate selling, general & administrative expenses.

months, respectively.
n/a  Not applicable

     U.S. operating income increased $15.0 million or four percent for the
quarter and $44.4 million or six percent for the six months.  The increase
for the quarter was driven by lower selling, general & administrative
expenses and higher other operating income, while for the six months, the
increase was due to higher combined operating margin dollars and higher
other operating income.
     Europe's operating income increased three percent for the quarter and
eight percent for the six months in constant currencies.  Strong results in
France, Italy, Russia and Spain drove this segment's performance in both
periods.  Weak results in Germany had a significant impact on the segment's
operating income growth rate.
     Operating income in Asia/Pacific increased seven percent for the
quarter and 13 percent for the six months in constant currencies.  This
segment benefited in both periods from strong performances in China and
South Korea, while Australia's challenging comparisons and a drop in retail
spending hurt results.  In addition, the partial sale of our Japanese
affiliate's ownership in Toys 'R' Us Japan, in connection with an initial
public offering of Toys 'R' Us Japan, contributed to the increase.  Japan's
second quarter 1999 results benefited from a lower effective tax rate.
     Latin America's operating income decreased eight percent for the
quarter and six percent for the six months in constant currencies.  Both
periods were negatively impacted by the difficult economic conditions
experienced by most markets in the region.  Increases in Brazil, Mexico and
Venezuela, as well as the consolidation of Argentina, partly offset the
decreases in both periods.
     In the Other segment, strong performances in Canada and several other
markets were offset by the investment spending for Other Brands for the
quarter and six months.

INTEREST, NONOPERATING EXPENSE AND INCOME TAXES
For both periods, higher interest expense was primarily due to
significantly higher average debt levels, partly offset by lower average
interest rates and weaker foreign currencies.  The higher average debt
levels were a result of the Company using its available credit capacity to
fund share repurchases.
     Nonoperating (income) expense reflected a gain related to the sale of
a partial ownership interest in a majority owned subsidiary outside the
U.S. and lower minority interest expense for the quarter and six months.
In addition, nonoperating (income) expense for the quarter reflected
translation gains in 2000 compared with translation losses in 1999.
     The effective income tax rate was 32.0 percent for both periods of
2000 compared with 33.0 percent for both periods of 1999.

WEIGHTED AVERAGE SHARES
Weighted average shares outstanding for the second quarter and the six
months were lower compared with the prior year due to shares repurchased.
In addition, outstanding stock options had a less dilutive effect than in
the prior year.  During the first six months of 2000, the Company
repurchased 35.7 million shares of its common stock for approximately
$1.3 billion.

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
Certain forward-looking statements are included in this report.  They use
such words as "may," "will," "expect," "believe," "plan" and other similar
terminology.  These statements reflect management's current expectations
and involve a number of risks and uncertainties.  Actual results could
